Iswithi Pinotage (Sweet)

Western Cape Pinotage

The Makulu Iswithi Pinotage is a delightful red wine hailing from South Africa's Western Cape, a region renowned for its diverse terroirs that beautifully enhance the character of its wines. This sweet expression of Pinotage showcases a medium-bodied profile, which strikes a harmonious balance between weight and approachability. The acidity is bright, lending a refreshing quality that elevates the fruit-forward nature of the wine. With prominent flavors of ripe red berries and subtle hints of dark chocolate, this Pinotage is certainly enticing. Its tannins are soft and well-integrated, providing just the right amount of structure without overwhelming the palate. The wine is off-dry, making it a fantastic choice for those who appreciate a touch of sweetness in their glass. Perfect for casual gatherings or as a conversation starter, the Makulu Iswithi Pinotage offers a taste of the innovative spirit found in South Africa's winegrowing regions.
